A jam-packed finale to this trilogy set in a version of Portland where Forest Park is the Impassable Wilderness, a magical land most humans in the city can’t physically enter. After establishing a new set of characters and new thread of narrative in the second book, this one starts with yet another new thread. It makes the story get a little bloated, especially since each thread tends to finish a chapter on a suspenseful moment, but the next chapter shifts back to a storyline, which had you on your seat a few chapters ago. But despite having to hold on to this momentum, it all gets woven together by the end. Read more on my booklog

The beginning was frustrating adding in another storyline right at the beginning but I just want to say he wraps it up really really nicely. Yes you get the answer to mostly all your questions. 💙

What a great ending to a good trilogy. I loved how all of the plot lines came together and climaxed in the end and, of course, the writing and illustrations are fascinating as usual.

A lovely ending to a magical trilogy! Took a long time to read this book because I didn’t want to finish it. Even as a young adult I found this to be such a wonderful book series. The beautiful illustrations made this book even better.
